Andrew Nissen
FGSM365 Expecting an A- Anonymous 12/25/2024 |
Nissen is a super nice guy, but his inexperience as a professor definitely shows. The class is graded on 4 assignments, a final presentation, and participation. Guidelines for the assignments were always extremely unclear which made the class way more stressful, but on the bright side Nissen seemed to recognize this and graded them rather leniently, as he did with the final presentations. However, the overarching problem with this class was the TAs. In addition to both being extremely condescending, they were utterly useless when it came to questions about assignments, an example being when one of them said they "didn't know the grading criteria" DURING an oral assignment that was 10% of our grade (THEY WERE THE ONE GRADING IT.) They were also in charge of participation grades, yet they got lazy and stopped recording participation halfway through the semester, so the grades were decided off of memory/at random. It's definitely an interesting class and Nissen is a great guy, but be prepared for a class that is marketed as a free A but is significantly more stressful due to naivety from Nissan and laziness from the TAs. |
